Way of Life

What defines the greatness of Men? Is it just the results you get? Or the commitment to pursuit your dreams? Why some people are afraid of the ocean while others can't live without dropping 40 feet waves?

This short documentary follows the story of João de Macedo, an underdog big wave surfer who tries to run the world tour without a major sponsor. Filmed over the last 6 months in some of the most iconic big wave surf spots around the world.

Well at least I saw one thing in this video that made some sense to me and that was the wearing of a life preserver under either a jacket or shirt. That makes sense to me when they are surfing those big waves at least a life preserver will help preserve their life if and when they get buried by those waves.

If nothing else, it makes it easier to locate the bodies!
